The Flirts ‎– Made In America (LP)

€19.95

Made In America (1984) is a highly formulaic but charmingly energetic Hi-NRG and synth-pop record that serves as a perfect time capsule of mid-80s underground dance music. Produced by the notorious Bobby Orlando, the album does not try to be high art. It embraces a camp, budget-conscious aesthetic where the music is essentially the mechanical backdrop for three rotating vocal models.

Stripping away nostalgia reveals a glaring truth: the album relies on aggressive plagiarism, recycling chart-topping sounds of its era into derivative club tracks. However, its relentless tempo and heavy electronic pulse make it incredibly effective on a dance floor.
